Mouth-watering and nutritious recipes from packed lunches to entertaining;

Ways in which food combining can help to save money and time;

Diets for life stages – pregnancy, babies, toddlers, children, teenagers, the menopause and 60+;

Recommendations for healthy adults – high energy/sports, medium energy and low energy;

Special diets – low sugar and diabetic, wheat/gluten-free, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, food allergy and intolerance;

Sensible and down-to-earth recommendations for all occasions – cooking for the family and for one, children’s parties, special occasions and living on a tight budget.

Drawing on 20 years of teaching biology (including food chemistry) and himself a sufferer of coeliac disease, Peter is uniquely placed to write on the subject of food combining. Like Peter, Donna Thomson is an experienced food combiner and firmly believes in its health benefits.
